Welcome to NYU Study Abroad! We’re delighted that you’ll be spending a semester or year with us and can’t wait to greet you in Paris. In the meantime, this page will guide you through everything you need to get ready for your term abroad. We’ve mirrored the acceptance letter very closely, so please be sure to use that as an additional reference.
Upon your arrival in Paris you'll receive a login and password to
the NYU-in-Paris website where you will find course descriptions,
sign-ups for cultural activities, a library catalogue and pictures
from recent events. You can visit the site for a preview of
what to expect in Paris.

By the time you've visited this site, we're assuming that you've already reserved your place in NYU Study Abroad and
received (or renewed) your passport. If you haven't, please check your acceptance materials for details on those two very important preliminary steps.
Here’s what’s next:

Ongoing,
but get started ASAP!
Unfortunately, NYU does not have the ability to change visa requirements, nor does it help if we call consulates or embassies on your behalf. Though we're happy to help you in whatever way we can, the decision to issue you a visa rests solely with the consulate or embassy. Below you'll find instructions for getting your visa, along with sample visa applications and supporting materials.

ASAP to ensure that all materials get to you promptly.
NYU Students: We'll send all e-mail communication to your NYU e-mail address (not your personal or Stern address), so
check that account regularly or activate mail forwarding. In addition,
make sure that your addresses and phone numbers in NYUHome
are updated so that we're able to contact you with important information throughout the semester.
Visiting Students: You'll create an NYUHome account prior to
registering for classes (see #4). At that point, be sure to keep your contact information current and check your NYUHome e-mail account regularly.

The housing form
is available through the online forms system (see #7).
NYU Students: Remember to cancel NYU Housing for next semester. Bring
your original acceptance letter (plus a copy) to the Housing office at 383
Lafayette Street along with the housing cancellation form by April 1st in order to have your deposit
credited to your fall bill. We'll notify you via e-mail when the link from this page to the cancellation form becomes available. Questions?
E-mail
housing@nyu.edu.

Our online forms system is where you'll submit
information on your flights, passport, housing preferences, health insurance, and
emergency contacts.
However, we also require two paper forms. These are simple to complete, but will require your time and may require a visit to your physician, so please plan ahead. For detailed information on how to use the Webforms system, please click here.
